DPSPs’ internationale seminar i Aarhus med Peter Tyrer

Professor Peter Tyrer er en britisk psykiater og professoremeritus i ”Community Psychiatry” på Imperial College London. Han har igennem sin karriere ydet et væsentligtbidrag til forståelsen af personlighedsforstyrrelser og blandt andet stået i spidsen for WHO’s ICD-11 Work Group for Revision of Classification of Personality Disorders og været med til at udvikle NICE-retningslinjen for borderline personlighedsforstyrrelse. Han har skrevet hundredvis af artikler og mange bøger om bl.a. personlighedsforstyrrelser og deres behandling. Samtidig har han udviklet en ny behandlingsform kaldet ”Nidotherapy”, hvor fokus er at skabe forandringer i miljøet, frem for personen, så der etableres et bedre match mellem person og omgivelser.

Peter Tyrer modtog i 2015 Royal College of Psychiatrists’ Lifetime Achievement Award. Dr. Tyrer’ introduktion til seminaret” Personality disorders have been very poorly classified in the past 100 years and wrongly as degenerative diseases for most of this time. With the introduction of ICD-11 and a radically different classification, we have the opportunity of rehabilitating the concept and removing a large slice of the stigma that still surrounds it. The new classification avoids

all the categories of personality disorder but there are so many adherents of one of the labels, borderline personality disorder, that it was forced into ICD-11 by what can only be called the ‘borderline lobby’ (Big Pharma are not the only influential lobby around). But borderline is not a diagnosis, only a ‘pattern specifier’ to be used by those who fear abandonment.

The new classification covers the full range of personality pathology, including a subsyndromal condition called ‘personality difficulty’. Epidemiological studies suggest that personality difficulty (a form of situational personality disturbance) is remarkably common and only a few people can describe their personalities as normal. The data also suggest that a large number of other mental disorders are associated with personality disturbance and, when these are intimately tied together, can be regarded as Galenic syndromes (Galen being the first to join personality to disease).

These changes also herald a change to treatment strategies and these will be described in these talks, with particular attention to environmental interventions of all types, including nidotherapy.”
